Hybrid fire testing for assessing performance of structures in fire—Application

open access: yesFire Safety Journal, 2013
This paper presents the results for application and implementation of the hybrid fire testing (HFT) approach, developed previously for performance assessment of the structure in fire. The HFT carried out by means of both computer simulation and experimentation using the National Research Council Canada's (NRC) testing facilities in Ottawa.

Hybrid fire testing for assessing performance of structures in fire—Methodology

open access: yesFire Safety Journal, 2013
Abstract A new performance-based assessment approach for structures in fire, referred to as hybrid fire testing (HFT) method, is presented in this article. The HFT was developed based on a sub-structuring method, by dividing the whole structure into two substructures, one being tested in a furnace and one being simulated by a computer.
